Welcome to a warm place. A place far from the vast frozen wasteland you normally inhabit. Welome to a place where the drinks are tall and the pants are shorts. HA ha!

I work outside, not too far north of where you are, and today was a hot one, at least inland where I am. I suppose if I resided in a frostier place I would have to wear long pants. I don't and I shant.

Peter V. Bella said... Alphaliberal, ruining a perfectly good day at the beach. That is all those mighty modern fighty liberals are good for. They have no appreciation of beauty, relaxation, and just the plain and simle joys of sharing a vacation with others.

If they have to have miserable lives, they must see that the rest of the world is miserable with them.

If you make an ad that brings a subject forward, there are consequences. For example, Obama isn't going to tweak Sarah Palin for being from way up in Alaska, which seems kind of like Canada, because it would make people think about Obama's sojourn in Indonesia, campaigning in Berlin, and general orientation to the world at the international level. That doesn't mean it's a fact that Obama is unAmerican, it just means it's a can of worms Obama should know better than to open.

HE Danaan children laugh, in cradles of wrought gold, And clap their hands together, and half close their eyes, For they will ride the North when the ger-eagle flies, With heavy whitening wings, and a heart fallen cold: I kiss my wailing child and press it to my breast, And hear the narrow graves calling my child and me. Desolate winds that cry over the wandering sea; Desolate winds that hover in the flaming West; Desolate winds that beat the doors of Heaven, and beat The doors of Hell and blow there many a whimpering ghost; O heart the winds have shaken, the unappeasable host Is comelier than candles at Mother Mary's feet.

..it would make people think about Obama's sojourn in Indonesia, campaigning in Berlin, and general orientation to the world at the international level. That doesn't mean it's a fact that Obama is unAmerican, it just means it's a can of worms Obama should know better than to open.

"If you make an ad that brings a subject forward, there are consequences. ....."

Is this a response to me? I ask because it's nonresponsive.

So, because the McCain campaign and their surrogates are making the false claim that McCain can't do email because he was a POW, then it's Obama's fault for pointing out they claom he can't use email? That's ridiculous because the link makes no sense.

O CURLEW, cry no more in the air,Or only to the water in the West;Because your crying brings to my mindpassion-dimmed eyes and long heavy hairThat was shaken out over my breast:There is enough evil in the crying of wind.

So here we are on a lovely beach thread and AlphaLiberal invades with his politics. Now, if he did it on a political thread, ok. But he has no basic sense of decency, humanity to know better. It's why I keep reiterating to my more gullible conservative friends that liberals are ghouls and monsters.

Lem, to your allegation of press bias, I direct you to this very good point:

"In 2000 Al Gore was pilloried by the mainstream media ("MSM") for his alleged untruths or exaggerations -- Love Canal, Love Story, Internet, Who he visited in Texas. In every instance, at the very most he had chosen the wrong word or failed to clarify the misunderstandings of others.

Now in 2008 the McCain-Palin ticket revels in inaccuracy, wallows in whoppers, lies like a pair of rugs, buys ad time to tell still more lies. So tell me why the MSM doesn't talk about their dishonesty endlessly, turning them from celebrity stars into pathological figures?

The contrast is absolutely clear. What's the explanation?"

p.s. Lem, I think your pals want you to apologize for not writing about beaches or sand, you bad boy.

I see many of you are responding to the one gone vanished. Why do you do this? You know the vanished one trolls the deepest dregs of the left-o-sphere then brings whatever filth he finds there here for a test drive. Thus the non-sequiturs. If he had an ounce of originality it would taint his makeup of pure toxin.

And by troll I mean in the fishing sense and not the living-under-a-bridge-sense.

Doomed to a life of unhappiness, this one who doesn't appear on my screen. Don't allow any trolled-for poison to get on yourselves. Other than that, when the wind is right, go on and have yourself a wee in his direction. He apparently enjoys being slapped around and pissed on. Having consciously forfeited his innate capacity to discriminate, any attention serves the ego.

One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.

In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand. Sometimes there were two sets of footprints, other times there was one only.

This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life, when I was suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat, I could see only one set of footprints, so I said to the Lord,

“You promised me Lord, that if I followed you, you would walk with me always. But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life there has only been one set of footprints in the sand. Why, when I needed you most, have you not been there for me?”

The Lord replied, “That was when I saw Alpha Liberal coming. I mean, I'm omnipotent and all, but what a pain in the ass. You understand."

I'm going up the `pool from down the smoke belowto taste my mum's jam sarnies and see our Aunty Flo.The candyfloss salesman watches ladies in the sanddown for a freaky weekend in the hope that they'll be meetingMister Universe.

The iron tower smiles down upon the silver seaand along the golden mile they'll be swigging mugs of tea.The politicians there who've come to take the airwhile posing for the daily presswill look around and blame the messon Edward Bear.

A man must have the inner alphaAn alpha is an untamed beastof combative aggressionA man with the inner alpha has mastered th untamed beastHe knows when the beast should appearand when it does, he controls itThe beast should only appear when used in protective situationsThe inner alpha is content with his abilitiesand uses them to help himself andto help his neighbors around himWhen the inner alpha is first awakened, you will feel the arrogance of the potential powerthat you truly possess withinYou will not want to hurt anybody or yourselfYou will only do good things for the people around youYou will feel that you were never happierHopefully you too will find this inner peace that is called the inner alpha

Last night I dreamed of chickens,there were chickens everywhere,they were standing on my stomach,they were nesting in my hair,they were pecking at my pillow,they were hopping on my head,they were ruffling up their feathersas they raced about my bed.

They were on the chairs and tables,they were on the chandeliers,they were roosting in the corners,they were clucking in my ears,there were chickens, chickens, chickensfor as far as I could see...when I woke today, I noticedthere were eggs on top of me.

I've been very bad so far this weekend, and I'm going to be much worse tonight.

I'm gonna need some of Jane Hampster's mighty condesendence Monday to get my head right. AlphaLib's isn't doing it for me yet.I might feel differently if I could see him on the video, while turning the mute button on and off at irregular intervals- sort of like a Chucky Gibson ABC interview, know what I mean?

AlphaLiberal said... The urge to censor free speech runs strong among conservatives. Some here want me banished because they disagree with me.

Only the government can ban free speech. If you want an example look to Harry Reid, a Democrat. Then there was FDR and LBJ. The progressives infected us with politcal correctness and all that nonsense.

Be my mistress short or tall And distorted therewithall Be she likewise one of those That an acre hath of nose Be her teeth ill hung or set And her grinders black as jet Be her cheeks so shallow too As to show her tongue wag through Hath she thin hair, hath she none She's to me a paragon.

Lem said... Would it be impertinent to ask if Iraq has been introduced to baseball?

It was tried. It is a top secret, but baseball was introduced to Iraq after the invasion. There was a slight problem. The Iraqis kept subsituting the baseball for hand grenades. It was the only way they could win.

Victoria at 5:36: "There is nothing more iconic in the UK than a seaside holiday." Herewith, The Charabanc Trip. A tribute. Something I have cherished since I first heard it 30 or so years ago. Not totally safe for the innocent.

I'm BetaLiberal because, like all good liberals, the Alpha version doesn't work.

Q: How many liberals does it take to change a light Bulb?A: At least ten, as they will need to have a discussion about whether or not the light bulb exists. Even if they can agree upon the existence of the light bulb they still may not change it to keep from alienating those who might use other forms of light.

A: I don't like how you're talking down to black people. I want to cut your nuts off.

-

Q: How many liberals does it take to change a light Bulb?

A: Lipstick.

-

Q: How many liberals does it take to change a light Bulb?

A: We are still waiting for Instapundit to tell us.

-

Q: How many liberals does it take to change a light Bulb?

A: The Republican Party is responsible for exploiting the memories of the dead light bulb, and for trying to evoke the pain of its death. How dare you, Mr. President, after taking cynical advantage of the unanimity and love of this nation, try to exploit this moment for political gain?!

-

Q: How many liberals does it take to change a light Bulb?

A: I put it on eBay.

-

Q: How many liberals does it take to change a light Bulb?

A: None. When Obama becomes President, he will light the world all by himself.

I told my boyfriend last night that Fey may actually not be the best person to impersonate Palin, since she lacks her girlish, all-American vibe. She's also angular and handsome, to Palin's more rounded, hottie face.

She tried her best with the accent, but it was Poehler as Clinton who stole the show.
